Book via Business World

Drawing upon our Ruskin Modules Open Studios, we are now taking the next step and opening the Studios to the wider community at Anglia Ruskin University.

Creativity is at the heart of everything we do and central to the purpose of ARU's transformative, inclusive, entrepreneurial, and innovative education. But what is Creative Education? Who can be called creative? Where does it happen and how can we activate our own creative talents to engage with students, research, and well-being? 

23 April, 4pm-5.20pm

The Open Studios are playful spaces for sharing creative methods and practices, in a safe, playful, and compassionate environment. This series of Studios follows the characteristics of creative pedagogies from the literature, as the framework for an interactive and practical session.
In this session, we will explore practical ways to install reflection as a habit, using creative based methods. We will be working on What do we reflect about? So What, what do we do with that knowledge? and Now What, what are the next steps. We will be working on four dimensions of reflection: Doing, Feeling, Learning and Being.
The OS are organised by Beatriz Acevedo, Associate Professor in Creative Education, aka Creative Oracle. Artist and Educator. National Teaching Fellow and passionate about re-kindling our natural creativity in learning, teaching and life.
